Excerpt from Intermediate French: Translation and Composition

The following selections have been arranged with a view to giving the student practice in the translation of passages that fall in difficulty between the descriptive passages of the elemen tary examinations for college and the more difficult passages of the essayist and moralizer. They will be found to cover a broad field of matter that is beyond the ordinary text-book or reader, and will consequently tend to familiarize the student with matter and style that might otherwise be overlooked or inaccessible in the ordinary preparation for college. The major ity of the passages will be found practical for the final prepa ration for elementary examinations, while the more difficult ones may be used for the advanced preparation.

The exercises in composition, based upon the texts for trans lation, have been found of great value in fixing the vocabulary in the mind of the student, as well as in keeping the more common grammatical constructions constantly before him. They should be written, carefully corrected, and rewritten.
